And to think that Honda really ruled the roost for many years. They were THE team to be on.

Pretty crazy stats there. I believe things would have been different had Tomac not have tomahawked himself into the ground.
What's up with Barcia... I thought he would be doing WAY better than this!!!

I did too. At the beginning of races he looks like he might make a move towards the front, then goes down and fades after that.

When you really look at when things went down hill for Honda, (the wheels came off) (the big slider) (the team took a dump)
it was after the 2-Stroke years of Carmichael.
Yeah they won here and there with Windham on a 450 in SX, and a couple Nats.
Yeah they won with Goat at very end on the 450, but basically since Honda went to the 4-Stroke 450, that team has sucked.

Honda just needs to hire, and then keep, the right guys. They get a good rider, then they get all arrogant and start thinking it's all about their bike, then they lose their top guys. They lost MC, they lost The Goat. And where are they now? Can't even buy a podium finish.

They lost MC over marketing rights. The pissed off The Goat. They thought Bubba was gonna own RC4.

A healthy Canard would put up some podiums and even some wins. But a healthy Canard is a rare thing, and that's a shame.

I thought for sure the white rear fender would do the trick in 2014. frankly I'm shocked.
